I loved my holiday! Absolutely.

The Kimberly landscape itself must be the star. It was a feast for the senses every day in every way. It was beautiful from the nearest swathe of green, golden grasses to the vast and ancient vistas. I loved the colours. We swam nearly every day in warm, clear waterholes and dried ourselves on sun warmed rocks.

Evenings were spent eating fresh and delicious meals cooked by Carmel and Mark and then sitting around the fire sipping (slurping) beverages(wine) contemplating the day that had just passed.

The highlights for me were (and it’s a personal thing):

Sleeping in a swag under the stars and moon each night. Tents are provided if alfresco sleeping isn’t your thing.

Swimming in that beautiful, soft, fresh water.

The light: it was sunny and clear and warm every day and the light just enhanced the beauty of everything, especially mid-morning and mid-arvo.

Our guides, Carmel and Mark. Those two are a wonderful couple. I think they were born for this job and they gave so much and we all appreciated it all. I have never laughed so hard at a badly told joke, Mark. Thank you both so much.

My score – 9.75/ 10. A quarter of a point is taken off for music selection. If I never have to listen to John Farnham or John Williamson again I will be a happy woman.

Rating 5/5
